Looking for the 2010 edition of the GIPS Handbook?

Well, you'll have a bit longer of a wait than I had anticipated. I thought the book would be available by year-end, but it now appears that it won't be ready until late 2011 and perhaps not until early 2012.

No doubt the massive changes to the GIPS(R) standards (Global Investment Performance Standards) has required a very detailed and time-consuming review of this important and valuable text. Anyone who is moving to GIPS 2010 will want a copy, but will have to rely upon the 2006 version of the guide, the new standards, and the updated guidance statements as they're released.
